We are a self-help support group for people with fibromyalgia.

We're located in the church in rooms 7/8 (Enter through classroom 5 on west parking lot).

Our mission is to support and educate people with FMS. We have speakers at some meetings, with time allowed for informal discussion. 

We aim to maintain both a positive attitude and a determination to lead a full life.

Note: It is suggested that you bring a cushion or even a comfortable portable chair, as we sit on metal folding chairs.

We have a common bond in that we each suffer from chronic pain. We share experiences, feelings, strengths and wisdom as we explore options offered at our meetings by members and guest presenters.

• To Seek out new information and educate others
• To Share our trials and triumphs
• To Support one another with encouragement in a Circle of Hope

Our purpose is to reach our community with support and knowledge of fibromyalgia.

Ottawa West was for many years the only "just support" group for people with FM in the Ottawa area.  When we started this support group in Kanata in the spring of 1995, we decided the focus would be on educating ourselves and others, and learning to live the best life that we can with FM, until a cure is found.

The church is accessible. It is located on the east side of Pinecrest, just north of the Queensway/417, and has free parking.
